progress?

My front door STILL isn't fixed - Landlord got a very irate phone call last night. It will be fixed today OR ELSE!!! *fumes* From the outside it looks fine, but the lock is being held in place by 2 screws set into what is left of the door frame.

Saldy, I discovered another missing item - the lovely brooch-watch that [livejournal.com profile] suzaw gave me at Duckon. Luckily, I still have the little brochure that it came with, and it turns out that it is a stock item, so I'll be able to get an exact replacement. Rennies on my flist - check out www.clipclocks.com - they are really neat looking and VERY handy for those of us who need to follow schedules at faire.

The only thing I still can't find ANY documentation on is the digital camera that [livejournal.com profile] jmaynard gave me. I don't even know what kind it was! I'm going to have to go back through my LJ to see if I wrote anything about it. I told the adjusters to just proceed on the claim without the camera and I will submit that separately.

I'm only just managing to catch up on flist stuff, so my apologies for coming to all this late, but: *HUGS* Gah, this is horrendous. I'm so sorry you've had to go through something like this. Dad was burgled once (while he was actually IN THE HOUSE) and it's a horrible, horrible feeling. *hugs you all over again*

Maybe it's the fact that I was first robbed about 10 years ago, maybe it's the fact that we temporarily upped my antidepressants, or that I passed beyond stressed about three weeks ago, but I'm actually not all that upset about it. Annoyed yes - paperwork sucks. But not traumatized or anything. I'm OK, my bunny is OK - the rest of it is just "stuff" and not even particularly nice "stuff" at that. I can probably get better once the insurance comes through.

*lol* Glad that you're able to feel that way about the stuff. So long as nothing of hugely emotional significance was taken then that's the main thing. When my Dad was burgled they took almost nothing, and what they took had little to no value monetarily, but one item was a watch my mother had given him that he'd had thirty years. Stuff like that you can't replace.

Yeah - nothing irreplacable was taken. My neighbors across the hall had their digital camera taken, with all the pictures from a honeymoon visit to family in Belize. I even found some of their jewelry in my apartment, including her graduation ring, so at least they got THAT back.
